Gov. Newsom Announces Vaccine Mandate for Students: ‘We’re All Just Exhausted by This’

EXCERPT:

NEWSOM: “Every time we take our eye off the ball we think we’ve got this or move on to the next issue or challenge we have a new mutation, a new variant that comes out and new variables that come out. And look, I’m mindful of the seasonality of this and while California has withstood this last wave, we are concerned about the fall and into the spring of next year. And so good enough never is with this disease. And we know that people are still dying, 700,000 Americans. We know that kids are being infected. Kids are ending up in our hospital system. I have four young kids. I can’t take this anymore. I’m like most parents, I want to get this behind us, get this economy moving again, make sure our kids never have to worry about getting a call saying they can’t go to school the next day because one of the kids or staff member were tested positive.”
